Sasquatch Landslide, the feverish latest opus from the Egyptian trio The Dwarfs of East Agouza, is not so much an album as a state of sensory wandering. Like the blurry creature from Mitch Hedberg's cult joke – "Bigfoot is blurry! That's extra scary!" – the music here is not lacking in precision; it unfolds differently: in overflows, in dilations, in halos of sliding sounds. You don't look Sasquatch Landslide in the eye; you defocus, you let yourself slide into it. Everything in this record oozes luxuriant improvisation, uncontained momentum: guitars, saxophones, synths, and percussion layer without a center, without hierarchy, without an anchor point. Tempos crumble and overlap, grooves writhe as if in an invisible club buried under a humid jungle. It's no longer really psychedelia, but its saturated backlash, its slobbering luminous trail. A dance without reference points, without up or down, a joyful vertigo. Here, blurriness is fertility. Listening becomes an immersive experience, where everything seems to emerge in the middle of something already underway. A trance that refuses to solidify, a movement that slips under your feet, an ever-elusive terrain. Like the Sasquatch itself: elusive, mythical, always in the process of becoming. Sasquatch Landslide is an invitation to lose your footing, to let go, to enter the swell. 180gr vinyl edition.
